in reply to [SOLVED] JSON::XS parsing error when incrementally parsing JSON file - "panic: sv_chop"

I have not had a chance to go through the code in detail yet, but thought I'd share my observations.

On Linux Mint 18 with:

This is perl 5, version 24, subversion 0 (v5.24.0) built for x86_64-li
+nux

[download]

...under Perlbrew, and:

perl -MJSON::XS -E 'say $JSON::XS::VERSION'
3.02

[download]

I get the same result:

perl jsonxs.pl
End of document 1
panic: sv_chop ptr=16e6219, start=16ebf20, end=16ec0e0 at jsonxs.pl li
+ne 41, <DATA> chunk 886.

[download]

Removing your requisite use 5.24.0; and after installing 5.16.3, I get the same error (note I included use feature 'say';):

End of document 1
panic: sv_chop ptr=1ed94c9, start=1d31480, end=1d31640 at jsonxs.pl li
+ne 41, <DATA> chunk 886.

[download]

So it doesn't seem related to the platform, nor the version of Perl. Only thing that's the same is the version of JSON::XS.

    Thanks

    I tried swapping out JSON::XS with JSON::PP without any success and got a different error:

    unexpected end of string while parsing JSON string, at character offset 5 (before "(end of string)") at parse_json.pl line 40.

    Not quite sure why the pure-Perl version is failing in this manner...

    I don't know if this is a red herring, but I notice the errors posted for the XS version all have the same length between start and end: 0x1C0

    That may (or may not) be significant...
